Our ski trip this past weekend brought back many memories of previous winter time excursions to the cabin. Sometimes we were able to drive in, others required use of skis or snowshoes. As recorded on the parchment hanging in the cabin, one of the first winter time stays was over New Years Day 1970 when I was fifteen.
I remember we had prepared in the fall by storing a lot of firewood inside the cabin (must of been before a decent woodshed was built) and we were able to heat the cabin to the point of dressing down to a T-shirt it got so hot. Ernest, Pearl, Celia and I shared this trip.
There have been many more since then, but it has been a few years since Terry and I have been in during the winter.
Terry and I have had Kelty backpacks for years, but Lucy just got her pack last Friday, her very own Kelty Chuckwagon K-9 pack, so she could carry her water (and some of ours) and her food too.
Here are some more pictures to share with you. More to come as I learn how to add elements.

Cassie has the exact same dog pack! They will look so cute together when we go to Sunriver and they are both wearing their red packs.
Wow! Thank you for the pictures of your trip to the cabin. It is so beautiful. What a treat to be at the cabin in the "private" deep of winter. The cabin truly is a buried treasue - it offers to us peace, tranquil pleasures, and beauty. This simple, yet majestic place possesses a place of honor in my heart.
